I didn't buy my c550 primarily for the Bloodtooth and as it turns out, that's the only reason why it didn't rate a FIVE; it is not compatible with my LG phone, and if it ever gets added to "the...
This is the reason to spend more for a GPS device. Not the Bluetooth connectivity, MP3 player, or integrated traffic receiver (three months free subscription)-which are nice to have-but the...
Nice GPS and Great price - - - A huge leap forward from my previous unit (Street Pilot 111). Maps and directions update quickly with plenty of options. It comes ready to use -fully loaded. The...
I purchased a StreetPilot 2820 in July of this year and overall the unit has been excellent. The biggest problem is with the actual mapping software and how it calculates the route as you move...
have lost my manual and hav'nt been able to figure out if it's possible to add addresses that are not in the unit. I live outside of town on a golf course at Rivershore golf links and it is not...
Worked for about two weeks. Got a message saying "No maps found, can not work without them." That's it. I have been trying to solve this problem for a few hours now, and this seems to be a fairly...
sgi's Review of Garmin StreetPilot c530 Satellite Navigation System
I purchased this unit refurbished but identical to new. Came with 1 year MSN direct subscription for free. Would not renew as there is only traffic info provided for my area on 2 major routes, just...
The Garmin StreetPilot c530 is the step-down model to the Garmin StreetPilot c550 and is a decent system for those looking for a no-frills portable navigation device. Unlike the full-featured c550,...
I am so impressed with the Garmin C580! Not only does it do a good job navigating and keeping me informed of traffic (I live in the Dallas area), but it really shocked me when the unit survived an...
It is a great tool for drivng around strange cities. My only regret is that MSN is only in 100 big cities and so weather, gas prices, movie times etc. do not work where I live. Make sure you...
I really like the product... When it works. I have had it 2 months and have had to return it to the factory 3 times because it will just not turn on (yes, I charge it). Garmin has sent me new...
Editor's Note: Portions of the Design and Features sections were taken from our review of the Garmin StreetPilot c550 as the two devices are nearly identical. Exceptions are noted. There are a lot...
"Overall great device, but developed a USB port problem after 2yrs"
The device works great, I think overall Garmin built a great product that is easy to use, small, good mapping software (I can store 1/2 USA on 512mb microSD.) You can count on this product for...
This is the best affordable navigator, this product is a low budget product, system is easy to follow, voice is clear and directions are easy looked at display. As first GPS is easy to...
Save yourself a ton of grief and avoid the whole Garmin line. Product support is just sad.(NO joke) Nearly impossible to register and thier site is more into selling upgrades than provding service....
In-car GPS devices have come a long way in terms of usability and affordability, as intuitive plug-and-play systems infiltrate the market and prices fall below the $1,000 mark. However, Garmin...
I've used this almost daily for several years in North America, and it is very good. I would buy it again. There are two places where improvement could be made: the connector for the cable to...
Pros: Door to door, easy to use don't need manual Cons: Poor design of power cord, and poor design using ratchet base. I have owned the 2720 for about 2 years and found it to be (for the most...
When the Garmin StreetPilot 2620 made its debut a year ago, it set the bar high for in-car GPS navigation devices with its top-notch performance, ease of use, and accessories. Now, with the release...
kiyawhite's Review of Garmin Streetpilot i3 Satellite Navigation System
I bought this cheap Garmin Streetpilot GPS as a shared gift between the people in my house. I didn't have much in the way of savings at the time I bought this as you can tell by the price of the...
mancunius's Review of Garmin Streetpilot i3 Satellite Navigation System
I bought a Garmin Streetpilot i3 in August 2006. Whilst it worked it was brilliant, but 6 months later it started nagging me about updating the map, which I ignored, since from year to year, not...
Not much larger than a tennis ball, the Garmin Street Pilot i3 is the cheapest of the units in our group test and has a screen that measures just 5.6cm diagonally. That is a little bit of a...
"Caveat emptor! No Support for Garmin Street Pilot C340"
The current price for the C340 is great --- I paid $800 in Jan. 2006. However, buyers beware: Garmin no longer supports this GPS. I wanted to up-date the maps (June 2009). Customer service told...
pros. great for finding places around town! purchased factory refurbished for 130. cons: traveling out of town not so great. lost sat's under clear skies and small screen, don't think 5"...
Quick Take: There are two reasons why the Garmin StreetPilot c340 ($857 list) is the flagship model of the company's c series : advanced text-to-speech functionality and traffic alerts. With the...
overall this unit does what it is supposed to do and is very easy to use Updated on Nov 29, 2008 just want to add that ive had this unit for several years without problem.
I owned this for about 14 months and now it will not turn on - of course it is out of warranty!! Always had a had time finding signal and would be lost before it ever came on!! Voive prompts kind...
I really love using this unit but am quite dissappointed with the suction cup dash or window mount, both constantly failed allow the unit to fall to the floor. I've had to punchase antenna so that...
In-car GPS devices have come a long way in terms of usability and affordability, as intuitive plug-and-play systems infiltrate the market and prices fall below the $1,000 mark. However, Garmin...
I bought a Garmin StreetPilot 7200 for my elderly parents. It has a nice big screen which makes it easy for my parents to use (ie. their vision and coordination isn't so good). The big screen...
According to Garmin, the StreetPilot 7200 is designed for use in large vehicles such as buses, RVs, and semis, but that doesn't necessarily mean you have to drive a big rig to take advantage of...
This unit is poorly constructed and cannot survive daily use in an automobile. Might be great if you're going to use it once or twice a month, if you drive for a living, do yourself a favor and...
I have not actually used this product yet but have one on order. This review actually explains why I selected this unit over others after a very thorough review of wha's available.
For everyday "put in the address and give me directions" tasks, this works very well. The MSN functionality only works rarely, and the traffic information is pretty useless. The bluetooth works...
HAVING TROUBLE WHEN I GET OUT IN THE SUN WITH IT. iT FALLS OFF THE WINDSHIELD WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. hAVE TRIED EVERYTHING FROM WETTING IT, TO USING DOUBLE FACE TAPE ON IT & NOTHING WORKS.
This is the same as the OEM one that comes with the streetpilot in the original box. I used it on my windscreen and it fell off sometimes in the heat so I returned it. The original one I had...
This is a plastic colored faceplate that replaces the plastic colored faceplate on your Garmin. This is a great addition and customization for your gps especially if several people have them. The...
My Garmin C340 came with a windshield mount, which has fallen off of my windshield and flung my GPS across the car several times. I'm so glad I bought this dash mount. It does a great job of...
The first one I received wouldn't charge properly and the unit died on me one day. I exchanged it for a new one and I am happy with it. Much better than the suction cup on the windshield that would...
Contrary to other reviewers, I found this mounting unit to be totally unsatisfactory, because it DOES slide all over the dashboard (I did mount it properly), and the placement of the GPS causes a...
The product performed as suggested and according to design. Offers good protection for the GPS unit. Front of case is reinforced to protect the display. Back is softer and zips snuggly to aid in...
The photograph for this product is incorrect. This is just the protective cover that only goes around the unit itself and is included with your purchase of your street pilot. You need to look...
The price of in-car GPS units continues to slide, thanks to an influx of basic, budget offerings that still provide all the functionality most users need. The Garmin StreetPilot c510 is one such...
I was pleased to try out the C530 today when I received it and happy with it's overall performance, but am stumped as to why Garmin would leave out the ability to announce street names in the...
I like the carrying case. My only problem was the case was smaller than I expected. I should have read the description better. Still it does the job that I need it to do.
Save your money if you are considering buying it. While it does hold everything nicely it is cheaply made the zippers are made out of super thin plastic and evenutally break making the compartments...
This is a so-so product (does not match current photo). SMALL and not much room for the price. This should be $10 -$15 and no more; you'd be better off with an alternate item!!!
I own a Garmin C330 and, like most anyone else, wanted something to protect my investment. I do not use the suction mount as I have heard that quickly identifies your vehicle to burglars as having...
Very good for the people who wants or need to be low profile with his GPS. Using this antenna makes possible for the customer to place the GPS anywhere below the wind shield line on the dash...
I have had my GPS for over a year and it has been great. Yes, the maps are outdated but lets face it, the roads haven't changed that much that it does not work. Momentarilly it thinks we are in a...
I actually bought this item new. But as I am looking for an additional GPS and am having a difficult time deciding, I thought if someone else was in my same position this might help them if they...
If you plan on going someplace where there's been no new construction for the past 7 years, you already know where you're going or really don't mind getting lost with digital assistance this is the...
I've used this almost daily for several years in North America, and it is very good. I would buy it again. There are two places where improvement could be made: the connector for the cable to...
Pros: Door to door, easy to use don't need manual Cons: Poor design of power cord, and poor design using ratchet base. I have owned the 2720 for about 2 years and found it to be (for the most...
When the Garmin StreetPilot 2620 made its debut a year ago, it set the bar high for in-car GPS navigation devices with its top-notch performance, ease of use, and accessories. Now, with the release...
I bought this remote because I installed a fixed mount on the center console of my Jeep. The Garmin 7200 is too big for the windshield area and I wanted to make sure I could get a good signal for...
An external antenna for a GPS is generally not needed unless (1) You have coated windshield tinting - these have metal particles that can obstruct satellite reception. (2) You are constantly in an...
I bought this mount to replace the OEM BMW Navigator mount on my 2006 K1200LT BMW motorcycle. Since I am using a Garmin 2820 rather than the very pricey BMW version that is rebadged, I was unable...
I bought this product because I have a car with a huge dashboard (a Jeep Grand Cherokee) and it was difficult to reach the unit when it was mounted on the windshield. This keeps my GPS in place on...
This was the wrong item shipped to me originally. I wanted the type c mount which would be much easier to use than this one. my friend ordered the same 2 units and received the type c...
I gave this a good test today , I traveled about 100 miles on mostly country roads with hills and curves and it stayed in one place . What a great idea. I like it better then the suction device...
bought as additional mount for my other M/C. What you see is what you get. Like others, thought cable might be included. (yea, right) Cheaper to purchase both together & save if you need a...
I had one of the first Street Pilots and after 3 years the wiring was becoming frayed and I feared that it's days were limited, which was a shame since my actual GPS was working fine. Then I...
My last GPS kept falling off the windshield when the suction cups wore off so I got this one. No instructions. Not sure if the clips go into the vent up or down but both are difficult to use...
Even though I live in a very hot area, I have not had trouble with the rubber melting. I have had trouble with the swivel losing its ability to tighten, allowing the unit to twist.
"Is that a GPS in your pocket or are you just glad to see me?" If you end up buying the new Garmin Streetpilot i3 GPS, get used to this comment, as you'll be hearing it a lot. The i3 looks exactly...
